Lyrics

[Chorus]
Youth, youth, youth
(Youth, youth, youth)
Youth, youth, youth
(Youth, youth, youth)
[Verse 1]
Never wanna be an adult
Always wanna be in revolt
[Chorus]
Youth, youth, youth
(Youth, youth, youth)
Youth youth youth
(Youth, youth, youth)
[Verse 2]
Don't wanna spend my life saving up for things
I don't wanna have what a steady job brings
I don't want security
Don't want responsibility
I don't wanna stay at home not making any noise
I always gotta be out
I always gotta have a choice
I don't want security
Don't want responsibility
[Instrumental]
Youth, youth, youth
(Youth, youth, youth)
Youth, youth, youth
(Youth, youth, youth)
[Verse 3]
I don't want no uniform
And I don't want no book of rules
'Cause that's youth
[Chorus]
Youth, youth, youth
(Youth, youth, youth)
Youth, youth, youth
(Youth, youth, youth)
[Verse 4]
Never wanna be an adult
Always wanna be in revolt
[Instrumental]
Youth, youth, youth
(Youth, youth, youth)
Youth, youth, youth
(Youth, youth, youth)
[Verse 5]
I don't want no uniform
And I don't want no book of rules
'Cause that's youth
Written by: Billy Idol, Tony James
